There's perfume burning in the air   Bits of beauty everywhere   Shrapnel flying, soldier hit the dirt      She comes so close   You feel her then   She tells you No and No again   Your lip is cut on the edge of her pleated skirt   Blue Alert      Visions of her drawing near   Arise, abide, and disappear   You try to slow it down   It doesn't work      It's just another night I guess   All tangled up in nakedness   You even touch yourself   You're such a flirt   Blue Alert      You know how nights like this begin   The kind of knot your heart gets in   Any way you turn is going to hurt      There's perfume burning in the air   Bits of beauty everywhere   Shrapnel flying, soldier hit the dirt   Blue Alert      She breaks the rules so you can see   She's wilder than you'll ever be   You talk religion but she won't convert      Her body's twenty stories high   You try to look away, you try   But all you want to do is get there first   Blue Alert      You know how nights like this begin   The kind of knot your heart gets in   Any way you turn is going to hurt      There's perfume burning in the air   Bits of beauty everywhere   Shrapnel flying, soldier hit the dirt   Blue Alert   Blue Alert...
